>Maybe it was a very old version of WinDev? I started with version 15 which is about 7 years ago. BUT I didn't use it beyond tinkering. We started really converting our VFP apps to WinDev in earnest using version 18, so call it 5 years of working with it now. We converted our main app from VFP9 to WinDev in about 6 months. Anyway, happy to give you a Skype + AnyDesk session so you can see what I am talking about.

Quite possible, and I can't even guess how many years ago this was. I just remember I couldn't find a migration path, i.e. couldn't see how I could write code programmatically, using either VFP to write WinDev code, or WinDev to read VFP code and write its own. All the instructions at the time were ending in the same "click here and start typing", which makes it unfeasible.

If there's such a path, then the migration becomes a possibility and learning how it works then makes sense, and I'd gladly invest time in that. Now when you say you converted your main app - how did you do it? In broad outlines, of course - if it ever comes to details you'd surely be hearing more from me. Keep in mind that we also looked at Servoy and decided that even with the number of customers involved, with automated deployment etc it still doesn't justify the cost. Also, all of these have yet another strong competitor: VFP itself, which still operates smoothly, so many years after we started looking at alternatives.
